There were only 2 of us on this tour so it was like having our own private tour of New Orleans. Our guide Laurent was a goldmine of New Orleans information and took the time to find out if there were any areas we were particularly interested in and made sure to cover those for us. Learnt so much on the walking tour and Laurent also made some recommendations of where we could go to see some music that evening, we took his advice on the Spotted Cat and it was brilliant! Our guide also got us a table at Cafe Du Monde straight away with no queue for some delicious Beignets! A great tour that I would recommend to anyone visiting New Orleans.
Very informative and friendly tour guide.
My mom and I (Stacy)so enjoyed our French Quarter walking tour!! Philipe was a true gentleman and so knowledgeable and interesting! We could have listened to him for days!! The architecture and history is beautiful. Doing the 10:30 tour we ended at Cafe du Monde at lunch. Fast service and delicious!
Our guide and tour were great. Also, Cafe Du Monde was packed for lunch, but she got us a table right away so we would not miss our next tour. Worth every penny!
We had Phillip as our tour guide. He was very knowledgable and nice. we really enjoyed the tour!
We learned a lot and loved our guide. It ended up being just us two and the guide, so probably a different dynamic than most will experience.
